bridgestone makes the duelers, bfg makes the all terrain ta, so which is it & what load range?
 
I find 36PSI to work well, I have Dunlops on my '04 V8. Honestly, some flex is not bad, you want a good footprint with the tire. I have to constantly advise my customers against over filling their tires and such because all it does is promote less traction and more wear on the center of the tire.
 
I run mine at 38 psi.

Correction, I checked my pressure again this morning since I've been trying different pressures since I got these tires about 4000 miles ago and my cold pressure is 36 PSI at 70 degrees. I used to have them at 38 PSI (cold) but after the tires warmed up on hot days they would wander on the highway due to the increased pressure a little too much for my liking.

I begin at what pressure the door jam placard calls for and then experiment in 2 PSI increments from there until I find what I like. But since I tow frequently, I'm usually changing pressures anyway.
 
The door jam in my '04 recommends 32psi. I find that if I run it at higher psi the 4Runner drives squirrelly on the highways (tends to track everything on the road which can be scary and requires a heavy hand).
 
32 at all four corners as per what's on the door jam. I love the way this truck rides and handles despite the factory Dunlops.
